Does Submitting articles really benefit my site?

    I do a lot of article witting that I pose on Squidoo, Google's Knol, ezine articles, Isnare,Hube Pages and others like them When I look in my traffic stats there are not many click though from these sites and some have no click thoughts I have been doing this for a year so I am wondering if there is any benefit to submitting articles

    When checking my backlins I do not see links from these sites. With submitting articles being so highly recommend by so many people, I am wondering if when looking at backlinks using several backlink checkers if links are counted by search engines from them but they just don't show up when checking backlinks.? What do you think

    I believe it does help, i think it adds to the trust factor of a site depending on where the article appears, we have quite a few articles on respected news agencies and we rank quite well for key terms

    I think it helps, but not nearly as much as it use to. I honestly wouldn't spend too much time on it. There are more efficient methods of link building. As far as traffic goes, social bookmarking sites are a gold mine, as long as you have decent content.

    Article submissions are helpful, but difficult to quantify the real value is in the backlinks to your website, which can boost your organic search rankings. There are typically few click throughs on the articles themselves.

    What did you write in your articles? If you write as well as everywhere you cannot get good results. You should use unique words and sentences. Add it to your content. Make digression from your main subject. Google like it.

    Make effort to stay your articles no far from article site's main page. The best case- one or two mouse clicks away.

    Distribute your unique article to 3-5 article sites. Don't distribute to huge amount of sites. In this case Google may throw down article to spam better write new one.

    And I think you get success.

    Try to find out your article at the site by google. In the results click 'Similar pages' next to your article's url. If you see many similar pages it means your content no unique

    Article submissions help. just make sure to actually write a good article. Check what other articles are in the directory on the same topic, and write a better one.

    You need remember that real humans click the articles, so attractive and informative articles will provide more clicks for you.

    I also believe submitting articles has decreased in value, but is still very vital to marketing in general.

    They should appear on backlinks either way unless the sites are specifically no follow. Google may be still indexing them.

    Keep submitting your articles and maybe soon, you will hit a goldmine of traffic with an attractive article. It doesn't hurt to do that amongst other techniques.

    Article submission is a form of syndication. If your article is interesting, people will reprint it in their sites or blogs. You can get traffic and backlinks from submitting articles.

    It really depends on if the article directory is do follow. You really should be seeing ezine articles though every article that I have submitted through them has not only led to a decent amount of traffic, but also a relevant backlink. You may want to try an auto article submitter to make sure your getting the most out of your articles here is a free one that allows you to place your article on thirty blogs> http://www.freetrafficsystem.com/ this really helped me increase my # of backlinks.

    Hi,

    Article submissions is a very efficacious way for building back links. I guess the problem might with the articles, articles should be unique to attract.
